Is it possible to mount AI iron sights to an AX if the barrel has the AI brake, since the picatinny rail fits on a dovetail on the receiver?
 
Not sure if a picatinny rear mount will line up with the dovetail on the muzzle brake. Call milehighshoooting and they will square you away.

My AW has the pic rail mounted via the dove tail rail. The AI irons I have mount to the pic rail and to the brake. There is no dove tail on the brake. A bolt holds the sight to a beveled portion of the brake.
 
I'm not sure how well it would work as high as the AX rails are. Your best option would probably be to get a set of AR15 style sights and run them on the rails. I'm not sure why you would want iron sights though?
 
Nutshoot got it right. I put an AWC Thor brake on my rifle and was going from my poor memory.
